The Electoral Roll, Annual Meeting and a bring & share lunch

Webmaster — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 15:53:39 +0000

The Electoral Roll is being revised prior to the Annual Meeting. Anyone who is not already on the Roll (if you have joined the church in the last 12 months for instance) and now wishes to be added, please obtain the appropriate form from the back of the Church or from Margaret Seaman, Electoral Roll Officer.

The annual meeting itself will be held on Sunday 25th April, after the 10.15 service. This meeting will be an important step in the church as we will for the first time be appointing a joint Ecumenical Parish Council rather than two separate committees, so please do turn up. The meeting should be expected to last until almost 1pm, when anyone who wishes to is invited to a bring-&-share lunch.
